Forcing lesbians to “include” men
If women don’t include men in everything there will be a billion suicides every day until there are no men left. No really, there will, and it will be women’s fault.
“The Commission notes that the grant of this exemption may lead to the further exclusion of and discrimination against trans women who are lesbians.”
But women are allowed to “exclude” men sometimes. We need to be able to exclude men sometimes. There are ancient and well-known reasons for this. Men can be a danger to women. Women are not as strong as men. Men as a group are sexually predatory toward women in a way that women are not toward men. Women are and have always been subordinated and belittled by men in power, and we need to be able to organize without men interfering.
The fact that some men like to role-play as women is not a reason for women to make ourselves public facilities.
Men are not lesbians. Lesbians are not men.
“Transgender women are a group who have and continue to experience discrimination, harassment and public exclusion.”
Not nearly as much as women have. Not even close.
What about the 100% of women who have ever had suicidal thoughts because of discrimination and mistreatment at the hands of men?
By that logic, on every occasion that I have locked my car or house, it was a deliberate attack on the unhoused, who might have died of suicide or exposure.
